Naaah thanks, I'd rather spend the money on gas or beer I haven't done a burnout myself, I just happened to sit in a friends car when he did one. I don't see the point.

But whatever makes you happy, right?

It sure is a beautiful car from the outside and it has tons of power, but the interior (especially the middle console) looks like it came straight from a 1995 Honda Civic or something. minus the navigation.

Actually thats the interior of EVERY Corvette. Not just the ZR1.
Ah well. Doesn't change the fact that Corvettes own. Maybe someday we will have an oustanding interior in the best American sports car.

The ZR1 is beyond amazing. 'Nuff said.

And that burnout?

Every car can get the tires to spin (might have to wait for a rainy day with bald tires but you can do it). But not many can do a burn out like that. I wonder how long the tires will spin when you just floor it (but not 'try' a burnout)?
